Bear has REALLY taken off in the eating field! He LOVES to eat! While he loved to eat just about anything we offered him when it came to purees, real food is another story.
Bananas- He loves bananas and for a very long time they were one of his most favorite foods, as of late he has started to not eat them though. I am not sure if this is a phase or if he just does not like them anymore.
Chicken Nuggets - This child eats chicken nuggets everyday! He seriously loves them that much. We buy them from Walmart (the frozen kind) and he eats them at school for lunch everyday. We would send other things with him for lunch but so far this is the only thing that we have found that he will always eat no matter what. He also loves fries as you can see in the pic below. We only give him fries once in a while though as a treat. This pic was taken at a festival so he got a little spoiled that day =]
Rice and Eggs - We have only tried eggs a few times and he did not like them either time. Rice, he is up and down on, some days he will eat it and other days he won't.
Spaghetti - He wanted nothing to do with the stuff.
Snacks - He loves animal crackers, Teddy Grams, dry cereal, Club Crackers, Ritz Crackers (the cheese filled ones), and anything sweet. We have found that he does not like cheese flavored crackers like Goldfish or Cheese-Itz. But snack time is always a big hit with him.
Poptarts - His school sends home daily reports of what he does there each day, and one day they said on the report that they gave him 1/2 a poptart... so I thought "hmmm maybe he likes those and I should buy him some" and I did, and it turns out he loves them!
Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich - I tried this only one time so far and he was unsure about it. The sandwich I gave him was real small and he ate half of it. He seemed to like the flavor of just not really the texture. When I gave it to him he had just woke up as well, so I think I may try this one again at a latter date and see if he goes for it.
Ice Cream Cones - We tried this the other day and he had no interest what so ever in the ice cream he just kept pushing it away. We then tried taking the ice cream out of the cone and giving him just the cone, and he loved it! Ate it all up! The same day we also gave him a pretzel rod and he loved that too!
Other foods he does not care for - He is really so so about veggies, I know he does not care for them but we still send them with him to school everyday. I am pretty sure that some days he eats them and others he does not. He also is up and down with macaroni and cheese and mashed potatoes, sometimes he will eat it and other times he will not. He did not want anything to do with meatloaf, pizza, potato salad or any meat other than chicken nuggets (not even chicken).
Foods he loves - Bear loves canned raviolis, grilled cheese sandwiches, fruit (he loves all kinds), anything sweet, juice, milk (he is now on whole cow milk), Gatorade (this is his all time favorite drink he goes bonkers when he sees we have it!), bread or anything similar to bread with the same texture like rolls or bagels... muffins etc.
There are still a lot of things that we have not offered him yet but we continue to offer him new things all the time. We are really hoping to get out of this (only eats chicken nuggets) stage soon.
